The 0 dB fans also let you enjoy games in complete silence and make DirectCU III the coolest and quietest graphics card in the market.
  • Targeted supplemental cooling

    When gaming, GPU temperatures are often higher than CPU temps. However, chassis fans usually reference CPU temperatures only, which results in inefficient cooling of the system. For optimal thermal performance, ROG Strix graphics cards feature two 4-pin GPU-controlled headers that can be connected to system fans for targeted cooling.
